Moral Loan
From the time we got the ticket to walk this world, we started to enjoy the services provided to us.
In this physical, materialistic world, everything has a cost.
Moral Loan: A loan borrowed without an obligation to return back to the lender, and instead serve the world on a grand scale to feel content.
From the day we were born until we reached an age of maturity to take care of ourselves, we consumed several services from parents, relatives, friends, teachers, strangers, and unknown sources to navigate the world without a legal binding to pay back for those services.
Every mom has to take care of the baby in her stomach until the baby gets delivered to the physical world successfully. The fun, pain, physical, and mental sacrifice a mother goes through cannot be equated to a value. Every person born into this world is morally obligated to their mom without a doubt.
The schools we went to, roads we used, hospitals, parks, places of worship, all are human-created and most are used free of cost or at a very subsidized(reduced) cost. None of us creates all this from scratch to consume these services. What is the cost of all that we consumed?
If you really think along these lines, the pieces of advice and support we received, recommendations when we were not able to make choices, and motivations, all together helps in shaping the life we live and for the future. Each one of us so tightly depends on each other at different levels.
The world seems like it is NOT obligated to give us anything.
Why were we given all this?
What is the motivation?
“If I have seen further it is by standing on the shoulders of Giants”
– Isaac Newton
Who sees further: a dwarf or a giant? Surely a giant, for his eyes are situated at a higher level than those of the dwarf. But if the dwarf is placed on the shoulders of the giant, who sees further? We learn from their wisdom and move beyond it.
We don’t deny the shoulders of the giants.
Are we not obligated?
We have to share air, water, and land without an option.
Can humans enjoy a real democracy from within and outside?
How can the violence and the pain caused to fellow beings all over the world be eradicated?
Do you realize we are obligated by a moral loan to return as the need arises to be human?
Being thankful is one thing. On the other side, is something expected out of us? Are we bound by a “Moral Loan” to this society?
Every action we take needs to have a consideration of the impact it will produce in the society, not just the profits of the individual or a group of individuals.
What can YOU do, to make our generation and future generations enjoy the best life?
